I did not care for the third act conflict, but I never do so...

I'm not someone who reads a lot of romance because it's usually so predictable and cliche, however, I really enjoyed Get a Life, Chloe Brown. I didn't know it was a romance when I started it so when it got to the sexual parts I was a little startled because boy oh boy it is VERY sexual.
I wasn't sure to rate 3 or 4 stars but decided on 4 stars. I didn't love it but I don't think that's the book's fault -I have never loved a romance novel.
This is why I recommend it (if you like romance)...
1. The characters are so endearing! I couldn't put the book down once I started it because I was rooting for Chloe and Red. They are both so sweet in their own ways and I enjoyed their development throughout the story. At times I was a little concerned they were both a bit codependent and that turned me off a bit but Talia did a really good job of showing ups and downs of a relationship.
2. The diversity in the book is what made me start it. I liked that the main character is a black woman with a disability. It's easy for me to say I've never read another book about a black woman with fibromyalgia. We need more diversity in contemporary fiction! So I loved this.
3. At first the sexual parts made me uncomfortable but like I said before, I didn't know to expect them. However, once I accepted I was in for a romantic ride, I enjoyed it! The book is smokin' hot.
Overall, I recommend it! Get a Life, Chloe Brown is a fun easy read.

I liked a lot of this book but for the second half it feels like there are no real stakes.
